The Witchdoctor Poem by Gedion Onyango

The Witchdoctor

Rating: 5.0


The doctor in my village is a witch
That is why I like yours
He wear refined costumes
He hardly talk with threats
Like mine
And just like your gods, your doctors hate witches as I do
That is why I like yours

But
My mother tells me, you are all lying

Of course I don't believe her at all!

But
The other day I saw your doctor
Killing too!
Painfully and physically
Than a witchdoctor in my village
I like your medicine since it is not bitter like ours
The only bother I have,
Why does your doctors still come
For the tree-roots of our ‘witchdoctor'!
